Wow this could be my 1st and last sea bass off shore trip. There's no limit on bergals yet is there?

Re: NJFishing seabass trip
 

None that I can think of, no. Who wants some size 10 hooks to target them? I'll have them on sale next year if I can find someone with hands small enough to snell them.

That post was awful. I hope that they can work something out like they did for this year to give us some days back, but we just have to keep fighting. I doubt we'll have the same bailout as we did this year, since we over fished the quota this year, and we were able to get back the days we did by using the old quota from last year, if I remember correctly. I think it's time to get out our checkbooks again :mad:

Ryan , if this goes down I'll open The Fisherman Gets F#$%ked Again Store . You sell the size 10's as I know a few deckhands who will do piecework since they won't be sailing and I'll sell the KY and the crotchless slickers . We will also sell everything the Pout (Winter) and Sea Robin (Summer) fishermen need . JMMR can be our Poster Boy . MMMM Doggies Good !

We need 19 more guys. Might be our last shot at offshore seabass for a LONG TIME. If you want loads of big seabass and porgies, this is the trip. Invite friends, we need people.

The trip is shaping up nicely. There is ONE more bunk left. After that, people can sleep on the floor in the cabin of the gambler, or on the top deck. We have 16 other spots left, but they unfortunately won't have bunks, but there will be plenty of room to sleep regardless. Let me know if you want in.

Re: NJFishing seabass trip
 

Myself like other guys are eyeing the weather last minute. I'm used to sleeping on the floor. Trip is 2 days before full moon. Get ready for current.

Re: NJFishing seabass trip
 

Current has me worried also!!!

Re: NJFishing seabass trip
 

Not much we can do about the current :(. We kinda had to take what we were given with the short season being what it was, so our date choices were limited. It should be fun regardless though. I can't blame the guys who are watching the weather though- it can get pretty hairy at the end of december. Keep in mind that Capt. Bob won't beat us up though- if the weather's nasty, we won't go and can try to talk about getting together for another trip. I was just gonna get some heavier sinkers for the trip- not much else we can do.

Re: NJFishing seabass trip
 

to check forcasts for where we are going what do we use? there a specific website or area have a certin name where we are going.

Re: NJFishing seabass trip
 

Bob can chime in on his favorite service, but I use windguru and NOAA. The bottom line is it's his call to go or not. I'm betting he's gonna use a forecast for like 60-80 miles E or NE of manasquan inlet, but that's just a guess. You could try the NOAA forecast for "hudson to baltimore canyon" even if it's a little bit far out for where we'll be going.
